- Pleosporales is the largest and most diverse order in Dothideomycetes, thriving in decaying plant matter across various global environments.
- A survey in Sichuan, China, identified new fungal specimens from dead pine and cherry branches, which were initially classified as part of Massarinaceae and Thyridariaceae.
- Phylogenetic analyses led to the proposal of a new genus and species based on unique morphological traits and genetic data, highlighting the unexplored biodiversity within Thyridariaceae and related fungal groups.
